The assets account group (numbered 1000 to 1099) refers to any item of value owned by the company. This can also include money that others owe you. Each account group in Sage 50 Accounting can be further divided into account classes. Unless your accountant specifies otherwise, use the default account group Asset.

The table below shows the account classes in the asset account group.
